The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

To expose their true colors, Charlie said, "I already said that it is no problem for all of us to move back into the Wilson family villa. After all, we are family. However, Claire's studio is already operating, and so, I would like to remind everyone in advance that Claire will not be returning to work for the Wilson Group in the future." 3

"What?" Lady Wilson yelled out loud. It seemed as though someone had just stepped on her tail. She jumped up in an instant before she said, "How could I allow that to happen? I've already said that the whole family should not only be living together, but we should also cooperate and work hard together so that the Wilson family can be strong and powerful. How can you come back to the Wilson family villa but not work for the Wilson Group, then?" 2

Charlie smiled before he replied, "Grandma, didn't you say that the reason why you are inviting us to move back into the Wilson family villa is because of my father-in-law's health? I thought that you simply wanted it to be convenient for him to recuperate and regain his health? Therefore, whether we move back into the Wilson family villa and whether Claire decides to work for the Wilson Group again is two completely separate matters. We should not confuse these two matters. Don't you agree?" 2 "No!" Lady Wilson shouted in response immediately."

Since your whole family is already moving back into the Wilson family villa, you have to return to work for the Wilson Group!" 1

Then, Lady Wilson tried to work her charms on Claire again. "Claire, you have just opened your studio and you have no business or customers yet. Furthermore, it will be very difficult for you to run the business all by yourself. How would you possibly be able to handle all the stress and pressure on your own? Don't you think it would be better for you to close down your studio and come back to work for the Wilson Group instead? Your life will surely be easier and much more comfortable that way!" 3

Finally, Claire also realized that there was something unusual in Lady Wilson's words.

It seemed as though Charlie was right. The only reason why Lady Wilson was inviting their family to move back into the Wilson family villa was that she wanted her to return to work for the Wilson Group! Lady Wilson's invitation and concern for her father were all fake! 2

If that was truly the case, Lady Wilson was merely putting on an act just so she could convince her to come back and work for the Wilson Group. Everything that she was doing was just so that she could manipulate and trick her. 1

Was all of this just a performance? Were they just putting on an act?

As she thought about it, Claire felt a cold chill run

down her back.

Fortunately, Charlie had reacted fast enough!

Otherwise, she would have been fooled, and she would have stepped right into the old woman's trap!

Thus, Claire hurriedly replied, "Grandma, I am really very grateful that you have invited our family to move back into the Wilson family villa. However, Charlie is right. Even if we move back into the Wilson family villa, I will not go back to work for the Wilson Group because it is two completely separate matters. So, I have to tell you in advance that my family can move back into the Wilson family villa, but it will be impossible for me to go back to work for the Wilson Group. I want to work on my own studio and focus on my own business." 1

When Lady Wilson saw that Claire was so determined, she absolutely hated Charlie with all of her heart.
